Nocturnal Maidens
-chapter 8-
Riku blinked. Did he... just say he loved me?

A week later...
"Morning, Riku!"
Riku beamed at him, "Morning, Tyson!"
A group of girls passed by them, murmuring to each other with matching giggles. The two of them blushed.
Tyson sweat dropped, "It's getting hard to talk to each other, nowadays, ne?"
"Sou yo..." Riku sighed,
"What are you two talking about?!" Max threw an arm on each of their shoulders, "You two are together now! You should be hanging around each other more often, you know?"
"Yeah, but, it's doesn't work like that in the real world." Riku mumbled,
Shura smirked, "There are many books in the library. Each has a story that will never be able to happen in reality. But when you fall in love-"
Her speech was cut off by another voice, who - obviously - had just come. "Reality becomes greater than any novel ever made."
Shura didn't even need to turn around to see who it was. "Tala."
Kai blinked, "Looks like you two know each other much more than I thought."
"Instinct." Shura shrugged,
Mariah grinned, "Yeah, right." She snorted. Shura glared at her, which made her just whistle innocently.
"So, Tala, where's your other teammates?" Ray high-fived the red-head as he asked his question,
"Still eating at the cafeteria. They served ice cream as a treat due to the birthday of the principal. Why aren't you there?" Tala leaned on the wall behind him,
"I'm laying off the sweets for a while." Riku sweat dropped, "My butt's gonna get big." She grinned,
"I'm already full." Mariah, Emily, Shura, Kenny, Ray and Kai all said in unison.
"Last one to get to the cafeteria is a rotten mortal!" Max dashed off,
"Oi! Maxie! Come back here! YOU GOT A HEAD START! NO FAIR!!!" Tyson ran after him,
Sweat drop.

"That's right, Shura. Just two more laps around the field." Kenny instructed, taping the whole scene from his laptop.
Running down the field, was Shura in just black short shorts and a loose white t-shirt. The school's P.E. uniform. Many would say that it was just normal. But it was already half-past midnight, and Shura was blind-folded, her long red hair swaying behind her. Plus, she already ran through, across and around the field eight times.
In the stands, stood a rather sleepy-looking BladeBreakers and Demolition Boys. Kenny was still busy typing, energetically, while the rest of the girls all slumped on the seats, towels on their shoulders and power drinks in hand with sweat dampening their clothes.
"You know," Emily sweat dropped then laughed as she looked over the two Beyblade teams, "You don't have to stay here all night. You can go home if you want to."
"Daijoubu, daijoubu..." Max waved his hand, tiredly, shortly followed with a long yawn, "We're not going anywhere until you guys finish this training. It'd be impolite of us gentlemen."
Mariah had to stifle a laugh at that. "Gentlemen... pfft..."
Max glared at her.
"Alright, then!" Kenny stood up, "Shura, you completed ten laps! You all get to have a well-deserved rest since tomorrows Saturday!"
Bryan yawned, "Are we suppose to celebrate?"
"I think so." Ian closed his eyes, then reopened them with a jerk.
"We don't have party hats." Spencer looked at the two of them boredly,
"Oi." Tala poked each one of them, "Stand up. Unless you wanna sleep in a zigzagged chair all night."
"Hey, Riku." Kai looked over his shoulder,
"What?"
"Can't you make beds by magic?"
"Half-vampires can't make beds." Shura implied, taking off her blindfold as she neared the stalls,
Riku just grinned tiredly at that, "I can make beds, but I don't think the school will approve of it. Besides," she noted the way Shura sent her a sharp look, "I don't think Shura would like it either." She chuckled,
Emily stood up, and stretched, "I'm tired of all this. I'm going home." She then disappeared.
"Where'd she go?" Max blinked,
"She teleported to her room." Mariah sighed, then disappeared, herself.
Bryan slumped back to his own chair, after attempting to stand up. "Damn vampires. Show-off."
Riku just chuckled, "Go to sleep, guys. You need rest since we're gonna treat you to the beach in appreciation for staying here with us!" She winked,
"Yay?" Tyson was already swaying back and forth.
"We are?" Kenny blinked,
Shura sighed, then teleported each one of the boys just by pointing her finger to a person. Soon, the stalls only consisted of herself and Riku.
She looked at her black-haired companion, "I'm pretty sure that you're aware that I will not treat some strangers to a day full of fun."
"Of course I am." Riku beamed at her, "But you'll come, won't you, Shura-chan?"
Shura twitched. "Again with the suffix."
Ignoring the statement, Riku disappeared with a wave. Shura blinked. Damn it. Then disappeared, as well.

Sou yo - That's right
Nani - what?
Daijoubu, daijoubu... - Don't worry about it
-chan - a suffix added to a name of a girl whom you're close to, like a friend or a close relative and etc..
